- c***o (371)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseI am thrilled that I found this for my national parks collection! As described, shipped promptly, and extremely well packaged in a book box! I must say I was impressed as most sellers make a cardboard "sandwich" and pop in the mail. The postal service isn't often kind and I sometimes receive items slightly damaged from handling. Not with this box though! I will not hesitate to purchase from this seller again!
